On my way to work, I found a new occupation I could start… Fire Fighting!
I was driving on the highway, when out of the corner of my eye I saw a small fire.
I tuned to see about a foot flame on somebody’s front porch. My instincts kicked in and I did a fast U turn, sped down the road and whipped in their drive way.
When I get to the house, I saw a lady who was around back. (I think she was about to get in her vehicle and leave)
I slung my car door open and told her “Your front porch is on fire!” I didn’t even give her time to say anything before I jumped the front yard fence to the front of the house.
By the time I got to the front yard, the flames had reached the top of the front porch and were fairly large at this point.
It was a plastic igloo doghouse that was burning, so I reached in and yanked the doghouse off the porch onto the front yard.
There were some blankets that were right against the house that were burning also, so I did the same with those.
By that time, the lady had woke up everyone in the house, and a man came out to help.
We got a garden hose, hooked it up, and began to put the fire out. Yay! 8)The roof of the front porch took some damage, along with the siding that was on the front.. But everything else seemed good.
It looked like they had some sort of heating device inside the doghouse that had caught fire.Oh, and I didn’t stick around long enough to find out if whatever was inside of the doghouse made it out or not… The man said that there was something in there, but he wasn’t sure where it was.
Anyways it feels good to do a good deed, and definitely woke me up! Which I needed badly
OMG! Way to go!! You probably saved their whole house! 🙂

Wow. That’s incredible. Oh, and who needs coffee, eh?
He was quite pleased with his golden dollar that showed up while he was sleeping. 😀
The call center opened today, quite successfully I’d say. By the time I left this evening we had taken in nearly 1500 calls. I myself had 61 while I was on the clock. 8)
My little feral kitten who was born underneath my steps two and a half years ago has finally decided that I can pet her a bit. I’ve gotten to pet her every day for the last 6 days. Yesterday she even purred for me and did half a kitty-flop 😀 I’m hoping I can get her to decide she wants to be an indoor cat by next winter-lol She’s already been trying to get inside for over a week, but since I have two cats already it will take some work. I’ve heard ferals are two steps forward and three steps back, so I gotta be patient with her 🙂 I hope she can bond with my two cats, I think she’s taking to me more now since her companion disappeared Dec 30th…
